“Remember Me” Rose Garden is a Living Tribute to the Heroes of Flight 93! On September 11, 2001, terrorists gained control of the cockpit of United Airlines Flight 93 - intending to strike the U.S. Capitol Building - but were overwhelmed by the heroic passengers on board. The plane crashed in a quiet field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania, killing all 40 passengers and crew members. In sacrificing their own lives, the Heroes of Flight 93 saved the lives of countless others. The Remember Me Rose Garden was created as a "living memorial" to their heroism and provides a tranquil setting where all in need of healing can find a peaceful sanctuary. It is a safe place to build community, promote stewardship of the earth, reflect on those lost and those who survived, and unite Americans against all forms of hate and anger that threaten peace throughout the world.
